    :( Dick Bevetta made his NBA debut 1 year before Moses Malone did.

    Like David Stern, he stayed on too long.

    He looks horrible for 74. I thought he was 94.

    I guess 39 years late is better than never.

    The fact that he was still reffing just shows how pathetic the state of refereeing actually is.

    Wow, so much hate for Dick Bavetta. Safe to say I like him...

    I wish him well is his retirement, and only wish that at 74 I can run 94 feet up to 50 times a day.

    You still have to deal with skee-head Crawford... And the NbA will continue to have bad officials that rig games, simply because it a a business and it's all about business

    I agree. I think Bavetta was far from the worst. I think people just like to hate on old people.

    Because David Stern hatchet men who sway playoff games are awesome.

    Crawford has made more and more bad calls. He's gone senile, and he should retire. That said, I still respect him because he doesn't play favorites and I've never perceived him as intentionally influencing playoff games.

    He wouldn't have retired if Lakers were contenders.
